Answer:

y = - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

y = - 2 is a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis.

A parallel line must also be horizontal with equation

y = c

where c is the value of the y- coordinates the line passes through.

The line passes through (7, - 9) with y- coordinate - 9, thus

y = - 9 ← equation of parallel line
